Defend (3)

Since Ye Qingtang believed Ling Yan's calculation, she would die if she stayed.

She naturally also believed his calculation that this mainland would be completely wiped out once she left.

If she left, her loved ones whom she tried so hard to protect until now…

Ye Qingtang closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The next time she opened her eyes, they were filled with determination.

"If that's the case, I will not leave then," Ye Qingtang said resolutely.

In her previous life, she lost everything at a young age and had no one to care for. She had tasted such qualms and regret for three hundred years.

In this life, even if she knew she would die, she still wished to protect the people whom she cared about.

Ling Yan remained silent for a moment after hearing Ye Qingtang's reply. Sometime later, his voice could be heard again, though the usual trace of laughter in his tone was absent this time.
